Symptoms and Surgical Management of a Distal Choledochal Cyst in a Patient with Pancreas Divisum: Case Report and Review of the Literature

We report the case of a 63-year-old woman who presented with the rare finding of a distal choledochocele in a pancreas divisum with recurrent abdominal pain and episodes of pancreatitis. She underwent successful resection with choledochectomy, papillectomy and reconstruction with a hepatico-jejunostomy and reinsertion of the uncinate pancreatic duct into the same jejunal loop. Comparable literature findings are discussed with regard to the presented case.
